Julia had a great week and a half with her grandparents. We are so thankful they could come down and watch Julia while our daycare provider was in Mexico. Julia had so much fun and was spoiled, of course! It was so nice they could spend so much time with her! Grandma and Grandpa Rudebusch came on Monday and stayed til Saturday morning and then Grandma and Grandpa Lee came on Saturday and stayed til Thursday morning.
Julia enjoys doing lots of different things now. She doesn't just walk now, she "runs." Okay, well, maybe not a complete run, but she goes very fast. She is very good at putting the rings on the stack, putting coins in the piggy bank, feeding the "puppy," hugging and kissing her babies, dancing, and she tries to do actions for songs that Mommy sings like "I'm a Little Teapot" and "The Itsy Bitsy Spider." She shrugs her shoulders and smiles. She loves to point out where your nose, eyes, mouth and teeth are. Gus is great entertainment. It is fun to pet him, throw a ball for him and tease him with his toys! She blows kisses and goes around the house making smooching sounds when she sees someone (or a toy) she wants to kiss.
She says "Dad" a lot now and doesn't say "Mama" as much as she used to. I guess she likes Daddy more! She continues to sign "more," "milk," "eat" (and walks to her highchair), and has just recently started to sign "sleep" or "nap." It is so cute... she puts her hand on her face and sometimes even walks to her room when it is nap time. There have been a few times that she signs "sleep" to me while I am reading her stories before bed, meaning she wants to go to bed now and not finish the stories. What a smartypants!

She has tried all kinds of different foods... even a few cookies... yup, she has a sweet tooth like her Mommy and Daddy!
I noticed tonight that Julia has 4 molars coming in, yes, that is right, 4. Wow. The one on the bottom left is almost all the way in, the top left is a lot of the way through and the right side (bottom and top) are just poking through. She has been hiding those well!
Mommy will have her first night away from Julia this weekend. Sad for Mommy, but Daddy and Julia will have lots of fun together.
